Hi! I'm a central Durham resident and I'd like to arrange some meet-ups a bit closer to home in downtown Durham or the 9th Street area. I was thinking Francesca's, Broad Street Cafe, or Parker and Otis might fit this need. Anyone interested in, say, a Wednesday evening or Saturday morning meet-up at either location? If it works and there are enough participants, we could make it a weekly write-in. |

I'm definitely all for this. Either one of those times work for me.

Hi,
I live right between Ninth St. and downtown, so would be up for this.

Great! How would Wednesday night work for people, around 6 or 7? We could do Broad Street Cafe, where there will probably be lots of space.

I think I'm in, unless work deadlines prevent (work cannot interfere with my first-time NaNoWriMo experience!! I demand it!)

Wednesday evening is good for me. This is my first NanoWriMo. I work Saturday mornings. Other nights are options as well,
Partial to Sunday nights......Franchesa's is good.

Great. So I'll be at Broad Street Wednesday night at 6pm. I'll put some tables together and put a sign up so you can find me. (I'm the short blonde with glasses.)

I live on the Durham/Hillsborough border, not far from Ninth Street. Wednesday evenings would be great for me as well.
Thanks!

Bumping this up to remind all Durham-ites that we'll be meeting at the Broad Street Cafe at 6pm on Wednesday night. Hoping to see you all there!

I might try to come to, right after work for a while.

I don't get out of class until 7:15 on Wednesdays, but when I do, I'm walking distance to 9th street. Will people still be there if I come around 7:30 or later?

That's about when I'll get there. Even if no one else sticks around, we can have a second write-in for the Extra-Cool Tardy People.

I tend to have Wednesday evening plans, but they have fallen through this Wednesday. I should take advantage of that and write. I should also avoid the kids, so I may very well find my way to downtown.

I hopefully will stop by after work. I think it could be fun to meet the other nanos.

Okay, I'm here at Broad St Cafe for a spell! I'm set up near the back, with a black and white shirt on. I'm not close enough to an outlet to plug in, so we'll see how long I last! Hope to meet some of you before I need to head out!

Sorry you didn't make it, NanoBarbara. Next time! We were five strong this evening, and enjoyed getting acquainted.

I'll be out of town this weekend, but would really love to do a write-in in Durham sometime in the coming weekends. Either Sat or Sunday mornings are best for me, but any time except Sunday nights would work. If you have a weekend write-in, I'd love to come!

I am horrible with names, and one would think that I'd write stuff down since I have a keyboard at my fingertips, but I didn't.
I just wanted to recap who all was there last night. It was girlonabridge, j__, Complexcloth, RunnerWriter, myself, and one more (TheGreekParvula?).
It was fun, and would enjoy doing it again.

I was disappointed that I couldn't make it-- my dad was in town unexpectedly, so I spent the evening with him. But I'll be at the next one!

Wish we could post the Wed PM Write-ins at Broad St Cafe on the Google Calendar for our region, but I can't make it happen. Anyone else?

Dangit, I knew I was missing one somewhere. Thanks for catching me.

Hey all, I unfortuantely won't be able to make it tonight because of a work commitment. Would someone else be willing to put a sign up so people can find you? Thanks, and see you all next week!

Well, I was about to leave in a few minutes for the 6:00 meeting but I'd probably get there closer to 6:10-6:20
I don't have a copy of No Plot, No Problem or anything but I have an HP laptop bag... Probably be wearing a red fleece or blue/green windbreaker, black, about 5'10" and blue jeans.
Make that a little later, since I still haven't left let. Maybe a bit before 6 30

Well, got there about 6:35 or so. Didn't see anybody so I returned home. Maybe next time.
